Started by taking the train to Dale and from there the bus to Tretteneset, where the bus driver provided a bit of extra service by dropping me off just where the tractor road starts (the official bus stop is a couple of hundred meters further up the road). The tractor road made the initial progress straightforward and I soon arrived at the end of the road. Here a trail to Dalseidstølen is shown on the map, but the weak trail I found did not really follow what was indicated on the map. It did however take me to Dalseidstølen, although there may a better trail that I missed. From Dalseidstølen I first turned north, following various deer tracks, before turning southwest on a more direct route to Kvigedalsegga . Note that I did come across a weak trail just after leaving the cabin, but I quickly lost it. So while my route >>>

Given the poor weather forecast for the upcoming extended weekend, and with excellent hiking conditions on the Friday, I decided to take Friday off and work during the rainy weekend instead. To take full advantage of the increased number of buses available on a normal weekday, I hopped on a bus to Tysse (or rather bus + bus + ferry + bus) where I arrived around two hours later. My first goals were Løtane and Myrbærstøfjellet , so I continued northeast along the road until locating the marked trailhead for Løtane. The trail itself was marked with blue plastic markers, making it straightforward to reach the summit of Løtane, which provided very nice views. I did not stay long before heading for Myrbærstøfjellet. First along the blue trail, and later on a weaker trail following the ridge. The trail more or less disappeared, >>>
